You got each other.
'Cause in the end, that's all you really have.
And you got your captain, Andre.
You know what to do, Mr. Williamson.
You see, we've been chasing dreams
for many, many years.
But tomorrow, you'll all get an opportunity
to fulfill some of those dreams.
You and the letters
that stand for this place.
You stand for PDR.
But what does it mean to us?
Pride, determination and resilience.
That's what's brought
all these people together.
You've given them something to believe in.
Because this is our community.
This is our house.
And it's built on pride,
determination and resilience.
Just pride, determination and resilience.
PDR! PDR! PDR! PDR!
PDR! PDR! PDR! PDR!
We're gonna win for you.
PDR! PDR! PDR! PDR!
Go get them, brothers. Go get them.
Man, this pool is big.
It's like an ocean.
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen,
and welcome to the
University of Baltimore Aquatic Center
for the Eastern Regional
Swimming Final.
We have teams from Baltimore,
Harvard, Plymouth and Mercer.
Defending their championship,
from Philadelphia,
the Main Line Barracudas.
And for the first time,
also coming from Philadelphia,
representing the Marcus Foster Rec Center,
Team PDR.
Listen up.
We are the official representatives
of the Marcus Foster Pool.
We're
Philadelphia Department of Recreation.
PDR.
We came a long way.
Let's show them what this family's about.
Swimmers, to the starting block,
please, for our first race,
the 100-meter backstroke.
Take your mark.
Come on, push, Mr. Taylor.
Get back, come on.
Go! Bring them in!
Bring them in! Bring them in!
Yeah.
Bobby Baskins wins for Main Line.
Wilson Peterson coming in second
for Arlington.
Up next, the 200-meter breaststroke.
All day, you dig?
Hey, focus. Don't worry about him.
Okay.
Swimmers, to the starting block,
for the 100-meter breaststroke.
Take your mark.
Go!
Good job! Hey! Yeah!
Reginald P. Jones
finishes in third position for PDR.
Swimmers, take your mark.
Come on, baby. Come on.
Come on, Willie!
Speed up.
And again.
-Go, Willie!
-Come on!
Come on!
Son of a b*tch!
PDR's Wilhelmina Thompson comes in first.
Nick Post comes in second for Main Line.
And Carl Walters
finishes third for Arlington.
This gives Mercer the lead.
Main Line in second place.
PDR currently has 58 total points
placing them in fourth place.
PDR! PDR!
Come on! Come on!
PDR's Walter Davis
is struggling with a leg cramp.
Steven Epson wins for Main Line.
Yes!
Yeah.
Stretch it out, stretch it out.
My leg!
This brings us to the last race
of the individual competition.
This will determine
what teams advance to the team relay.
Swimmers, take your mark.
Swim, baby! Swim!
Go, Andre.
You can do it!
Well, boys, apparently
we got ourselves a little rivalry here.
Now, obviously, that's not the same team
that came up to Main Line.
You realize that, right?
Killing, man.
Guys!
Guys, look!
After completing the individual events,
we have three teams
within reach of the championship.
Main Line is in first place with 101 points.
PDR is just five points behind with 96.
And Mercer is in third place with 93 points.
All right, this is what it's all about.
It's the relay.
And we in second place.
We can actually win this thing,
just like Walt said.
We win this relay, we're champions again.
But we lose and they're champions.
Walt, how's that cramp?
I think I can swim, man.
I'm ready.
Sit this one out.
-Then who's gonna swim the first leg?
-I am.
Dre, you're the anchor, man.
You can't swim first.
Yeah, man, he's right.
I mean, you know the anchor
has to have the fastest time, man.
The anchor's got to have the biggest heart.
Reg, you're our anchor.
You sure about that?
So, let's win this. Come on.
-Go Main Line!
-Main Line!
That's right! Come on!
PDR on three.
One, two, three.
PDR!
Teams, prepare for the last event
of today's meet.
The 4x100-meter relay.
This will determine the championship
for the 1974 season.
Swimmers, take your mark.
Fifty meters.
Barracudas!
Go!
Come on!
They got you swimming anchor?
Come on, Mr. Taylor! Go, Mr. Taylor!
Come on!
Again! Again! Again!
Come on!
Come on!
More!
Reg, Reg. What you doing?
Look at me, man.
You can do this.
You can do this.
-Come on.
-Come on, Mr. Jones.
Go! Go!
I'm proud of you, Coach Ellis.
Ladies and gentlemen,
we have a photo finish.
A photo finish.
What happened?
I couldn't watch.
I just couldn't.
Win or lose, we still got our pride.
PDR! PDR! PDR! PDR! PDR!
I'm proud of you.
Thank you.
